A superb injury-time save from Tatyana Shcherbak ensured Russia survived a late Italy onslaught to register a shock win at the Women’s European Championship finals.

The Russia goalkeeper palmed Elisa Bartoli’s point-black header on to the bar before Elvira Ziyastinova somehow managed to smuggle the ball off the line and through Melania Gabbiadini’s legs as the Italy forward looked certain to turn in the rebound.
